Trump Accuses Time of 'Erasing' His Hair on New Cover

His online complaint followed the magazine’s official X post, with Kyodo’s report quickly carried by regional outlets in Japan.

Overview

  • Time posted a cover photo of President Trump from its official X account on October 14.
  • Trump wrote on social media that the outlet had 'erased' his hair and called the image 'a very bad picture that deserves condemnation.'
  • Reports describe the photo as shot from a low angle in bright sunlight, making part of his hair appear less visible.
  • The cover package centers on Trump’s role in brokering a Gaza peace agreement, which he acknowledged while criticizing the photo.
  • Kyodo News distributed the story, which was republished by Hokkaido Shimbun Digital and Nishinippon, and no response from Time was reported as the image remained online.
